I found SteamGifts via...
searching for "hot pork on stage" I ended her :-)
Seriously, i can't remember exactly... i guess one of my steam-friends showed me this site and I liked it. Also I did not expect much, so I never had this "oh this site is scam" in my mind...i just made some giveaways and some day i also won myself ....but I have to admit, if I would not have anything until today...i might be a bit disappointed.

Had a spare copy of a game, wanted another game. Googled places to trade steam games, and this websites trading page came up, got interested and decided eh, screw it and registered. Won a copy of Dwarfs!? and was like this is totally legit, totally not a scam(?). Redeemed it on Steam, it worked and hooked ever since. I actually have my browser set to load up steam gifts every time I open Chrome.

A Steam friend introduced me to the basioc Steam-related websites. It took 1 month until I could join (that $100 requirement..), but at first I didn't even know there was a forum., or I didnt care about it. Until one day I was banned from the chat I used to frequent so I had to search for some other place to waste my time. And hey! The chat mod that banned me is permabanned from this forum so this looked like the perfect place! :D

Someone from my friendlist introducted me to SG and I've logged in just for curiosity. But I began to use it mainly after being on Playblink and seeing people speaking about it. In the main time, I needed to get that copy of Bad Rats out of my inventory. That's how I came to use the site.
I'm a contributor on both sites anyway :p.

But yeah, moving onto me, it hasn't been that long since I've signed-up here, but my found wasn't exactly new. I saw the SG links quite somewhere on forums and sometimes when searching for specific games in Google. Well, I always avoided because it didn't make much sense for me at the first thought. I thought of being possibly scammed so I stayed away, seen it "Definitely can't be legit." at the time. And plus I'd usually giveaway my games to my friends since I didn't have any community.
But then, some lot's of stuff happened, I lost three of my best friends, and now the last one is in army for another year, so I'm alone, also left alone with my extra keys. :P Well, I went and tried for G2A, for a while, and it actually worked up for some. I have Final Fantasy XIV and soon Heavensward too thanks to it. But after I got what I needed I got bored again, and selling and waiting was too boring.
So I went and typed in Google: "Steam Giveaways". So I checked through the first page and signed up on four of them (One being SG). SG mainly got me for the design, to be honest. So yeah, my first giveaway happened with a DLC. I didn't decide to stay on to be honest, but there were like some games on my wishlist I saw being given away, so I was like why not. But then I've learnt about CV system and more levels => more giveaways. So I used my last pennies on G2A to get a game, gave away.
But yeah, right now I guess I'm pretty much... At least hourly checking the site. Started up GD too, meanwhile I wait stacking for more points. So yeah, that is my story. What's yours? :P
